A stunning full moon tonight over Trumbull, CT.
(It is predicted that we will see a red “blood” moon Tuesday morning around 6:04 AM. But we may have too many clouds by then to see it.)

Maybe the last snowfall of the season for Trumbull, CT.

This female red-bellied woodpecker was poking and pecking around on one of our older maple trees.

Blue Jays are synonymous with “attitude”. From their colors to their screeching call, they demand attention.

This morning's snowstorm didn't slow down our local downy woodpeckers. :-)

Red-bellied woodpeckers either look deadly-serious or extremely-silly. There is no middle ground with them.

As soon as the sun came out, the downy woodpeckers were hard at work gathering food. I think they are making up for time lost yesterday and Sunday due to the blizzard!

This northern mockingbird is trying to hide from the snow and winds rocking our area today, but the apple tree provides very little cover without its leaves.

I had hoped to have a fun “first thing in the morning” snow photo from the blizzard, but all of the windows are now CAKED with snow. Tentative estimates are that we have 6 inches (15.24 cm)

The winter storm is pretty, light, and ethereal for now. The real blizzard action will start later, reportedly. #snow #snowstorm #ctwx #ctweather #TrumbullCT #Connecticut
Days like this make me happy to be part of a species that believes in living INDOORS.
The female downy woodpecker makes an effective case that you don’t need bright colors to be beautiful!

It's a foggy, misty, rainy day. So, it is challenging to get photos of the birds thru the haze. But our red-bellied woodpeckers are dramatic enough to draw the eye, no matter what!

This cute little female downy woodpecker was exploring every nook and cranny of our maple trees for snacks.

This bonded pair of house finches has been hanging out in our apple tree. They do EVERYTHING together. :-)
Mr. Cardinal is one of the few birds capable of shining thru a winter morning’s glare.
It was so nice to see our neighborhood fox is thriving despite the harsh winter.
The only way to make a cardinal more striking is to catch him at golden hour!

It's been a good day for woodpeckers in the yard! Downies, Red-Bellies, and Yellow-Bellied Sapsuckers all came out to play.
